Insights: Stories change depending on people, their culture, their situation. To make sure stories are appropriate, it is best to ask participants of their own stories. Ray shared an experience working with Apple on learning for servers. Since the server training was for global purposes, instead of having generic stories, Ray suggested to instead ask local participants to share what stories and experiences participants have about the specific server problem. This localizes and contextualizes ( make it relevant) to the local participants.
